 BS> If you have a CVS checkout, in some on the shell scripts.

yes, i /could/ but i should not have to... make should handle it cleanly...

 BS>>> What I did:

 BS>>> ./configure --prefix=/home/ftn
 BS>>> make
 BS>>> make install

 BS>>> .. and I did work out.

 ml>> i can't get past make... see the err log i posted before...

 BS> It doesn't seems like I recieved the last error log.

actually you did at that time... the current one gives the same error with
msgapi at the top so i'll try to manually compile that and then run make
again and see what happens...

however, no matter what, no one should have to compile msgapi first and
then run make overall...
